Canon i250 Color Bubble Jet Printer

Canon i250 Color Bubble Jet Printer Review

I purchased this bubble jet as a second family printer mainly for documents, and letters and have been extremely impressed.
It's fairly compact, very easy to install and use and has already more than paid for itself.
The average cost of a replacement black cartridge is around online for multi packs of 5 and I have purchased multi packs of color cartridges also online at under each including shipping! Compared with many other top brands that cost up to per cartridge - that's a big big saving. As I said this is a "no frills" printer, but actually has very clear reproduction onto photo paper in high color using the idiot proof "Easy Photo" software provided. The Maintenance window allows you to do many functions including resetting the cartridges for low ink warning after installing new ones, a quiet mode for night printing, and many other functions. Another gem is the "Easy-Web" print feature that allows you to capture web pages for printing on standard paper without losing information on the edges, as you would using the regular print function from Windows. The only minor complaint I have is that being a bubble jet, high quality print in both BW and color can take a little while to dry, but other than this - it's a wonderful budget package, with a well known and respected name. If you're into CAD or high quality photo reproduction, imaging and such like then this is not for you - but if you print a lot of draft quality documents, and have a family especially who churn out pages of printed matter per day, this will serve you well, and save you a LOT of money. I've had mine for over 6 months and it is in daily use with NO problems to date. Highly recommended.

Canon i250 Color Bubble Jet Printer Overview

The Canon i250 Color Bubble Jet Printer delivers crisp text, no-hassle printing and high-quality photos from the Web--all at an exceptional value. You've heard "no hassle" in regard to web printing, but Canon's specially developed Easy Webprint software makes it a reality. Functioning as a toolbar in Microsoft IE, it automatically scales and smoothes pages to fit your paper properly, and allows you to format multiple pages as a single, multi-column page.

Whether you're printing from the web or your own system, your documents, letters and reports will have clean, truly black text thanks to rich pigment-based inks; with speeds up to 12 pages per minute, the i250 handily keeps pace with the needs of your home office or family. When it comes to printing photos, you may decide that professional processing is a thing of the past-a maximum resolution of 4,800 x 1,200 dpi and MicroFine Droplet Technology combine for virtually grain-free images ready for framing or sending to friends in less than two minutes. Color images print at up to 9 pages per minute.

The i250 printer's compact design fits nicely into limited work spaces; with a weight of just 3.75 lbs, you'll hardly know it's there. A full software package is included to make photo printing easy manageable, and the two ink cartridges are included in the box. USB connectivity means just one cord is necessary, but you'll need to supply it yourself. Canon provides a one-year warranty with Instant Exchange service.
